Paralysis by analysis... I want to buya sub $1k mountain bike. Currently looking at a Kona Cinder Cone or a Specialized Rockhopper Comp. Leaning toward the Kona but I need to drive to a shop about 20-30 minutes away to try a similar sized Kona frame on for size...

I'm happy with my Trek Verve 3 and it was relatively cheap. I ride 100% paved though, too old to take a bike on some sweet jumps n stuff.

Personally iffn I was buying for light duty trails or just roads I would buy near new but used for about 60% less. Plenty out there.

Friday dudes!

What deadeye said, for sure. I'm looking at some $900+ bikes right now, but I still pump out 350-500 miles a year, and I run one speed with a Chevrolegs engine. Buy used and overhauled at your LBS, that homie will fit you to a bike better than anyone else.

If I really needed varied gear ranges, I'd try and find a single chainring (32t or 34t. ovals are for pros) with a SRAM 7 speed.

Don't get me started on road bikes.
